1. ABSTRACT
School strategic planning is the key to determine the
school’s success as it prepares to respond to ever
changing academic landscape. This study intended to
find out the roles of school stakeholders in the
implementation of the school strategic plan in public
secondary schools in Migwani sub-county. The
specific objectives were:- To assess the extent to
which strategic plans had been implemented in public
secondary schools in Migwani sub- county, to find out
the role of parents in implementation of the school
strategic plan, to find out the role of government in
implementation of school strategic plan and to find
out the role of school management in
implementation of school strategic plans in Migwani
Sub-County. Descriptive survey study approach was
used. Questionnaires and interview schedule were
used for data collection. The population of the study
comprised of 22 public secondary schools which had
documented strategic plan in Migwani sub-county as
per February 2017. Stratified and simple random
sampling techniques were used to select 66
respondents out of 286. The respondents were parents
(PTA) members, school principals and BOG
members. Data was analyzed using descriptive and
inferential statistical tools. The study found that the
parents and government are the main financiers of all
the school projects stated in the strategic plan.
Government provides teachers and policies which are
essential for implementation of strategic plan. BOG
plan, budget and prioritize the items for
implementation. An average of 34.59% of strategies
had been implemented. There was no statistical
difference in the role played by parents, government
and school management (0.979).

2. INTRODUCTION
One of the main objectives of the government of
Kenya is to provide quality education. To achieve
this, government has introduced strategic planning in
public secondary schools in Kenya. DEMA (2010)
noted that adoption of strategic planning in secondary
schools would decentralize school management for
improved performance. Decentralization would
require involvement of all the key stakeholders in
development and implementation of school strategic
plan.
Strategic planning process involves formulation of
vision and mission statements of the school,
situational analysis, strategy formulation and
implementation (Pearce and Robinson 2008). Though
strategic plan may be good, the success depends on
how it is implemented. (Kamau 2008)
Strategic decisions align the organization with its
external environment, increase organizational
competitiveness and require in-put from all its
functional areas (Shirley 1982). Unlike private
schools public schools in Kenya have many
stakeholders who influence the performance of a
school adversely. These stakeholders include the
parents, the government and school management and
each stakeholder has a very important role to play in
the school. The recent introductions of strategic plan
in schools require the participation of all the school
stakeholders in school strategy implementation.
3. OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
This study aimed at identifying the extent to which
strategic plans had been implemented in public
secondary schools in Migwani sub-county and the
roles played by each of the key stakeholders namely
parents (PTA), school management and the

4. LITERATURE REVIEW
Strategic planning is an organizational management
activity that is used to set priorities, focus energy,
resources, strength and operations to ensure
organization is working efficiently and effectively
toward achieving its objectives. Intended goes and
means to achieve them are established. Adjustments
are done to ensure appropriate organizational response
to its changing environment. Strategic planning is a
disciplined effort that produces fundamental decisions
and actions that shape and guide what an organization
is, who it serves, what it does and why it does it, with
a focus on the future (Olsen, 2012) Therefore,
strategic planning is a systematic process of
envisioning a desired future and translating this vision
into broadly defined goals or objectives and a
sequence of steps to achieve them. Various business
analysis techniques are used in strategic planning such
as SWOT and PERT. School strategic planning is the
key determinant factor for school success and school
strategic planning has been used for long in developed
countries and brought drastic improved change in the
performance of schools (Bryson 1995). Strategic
planning leads to preparation of an organizational
strategic plan. A strategic plan is a document prepared
and used by an organization to communicate about its
goals, the actions required to achieve those goals and
all other critical elements developed during the
planning exercise (Mckeown 2012). It is a deliberate
attempt to organize and control organizational
activities and services over a specified period of time
(Ngware et al. 2006).
Once a strategic plan is developed implementation
follows. Good strategic plan would be of no use if not
effectively implemented. Strategic implementation is
the process that puts plans and strategies into action to
reach those goals. It is the process that turns strategies
and plans into actions in order to accomplish
organizational strategic objectives (Olsen 2012).
For efficient and effective implementation of strategic
plan managers should involve all the essential
stakeholders.
PUBLIC SCONDARY SCHOOLS AND
STRATEGIC IMPLEMENTION
Public secondary schools in Kenya are managed by
the principals and Board of governor members who
are appointed by the ministry of education. These are
the school management and they operate under the
policies given by the ministry of education. As per
the stakeholder theory, parents, school management
board and the government are stakeholders due to
their capacity to affect the schools’ performance and
growth (Milles 2012). All school stakeholders should
actively take part in implementation of school
strategic plan.
5. RESOURCE DEPENDANCY THEORY
This theory conceptualizes an Organization as being a
dependant on resources in its environment for its
survival. Due to Organization’s dependency on the
scarce resources, management does not have
unbridled strategic choice and choices should be
made within internal and external constraints (
Andrew 1971,Child 1972, Pfeffer 1982, Oliver
1991).The Organization can manage its external
dependencies by adapting to its environment by
altering constraints through changing the legality of
its environment ( Pfeffer 1982).Therefore
Organization should be concerned with issues of
stakeholder groups who control the critical resources
for its survival (Agle, Mitchak and Senenfield 1999,
and Kreiner and Bhambas 1991)
6. RESOURCE BASED THEORY
Resource based theory views Organization resources
as the core to Organizational survival and growth and
the stakeholders are the ones who provide, allocate
and manage organizational resources (Barney 2oo1a,
20001b, Bovard 20005, Hoopes, Madsen and
Walker2003). These resources should figure
prominently in strategy formulation and
implementation in the organization (Kraatz and Zefac
2001). Implementation of strategic plan requires
tangible and non-tangible resources, that is, financial,
human and skills.
7. STAKEHOLDER AND STAKEHOLDER’S
MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES
Stakeholder in the Organization is any group or
individual who can affect or is affected by the
achievement of the organizational objectives
(Freeman 1984). There is high level of
interdependency between the firm and its primary
stakeholders and Organization cannot survive without
the continuing participation of its primary
stakeholders (Donaldson and Preston 1995, Freeman
1984, Clarkson 1995). An Organization can adopt
different approaches to deal with each primary

stakeholder group ie, pro-action, accommodation,
defense and reaction (Carroll 1979, Clarkson 1988,
1991 and 1985, Gatewood and Carroll 1981, Wartick
and Cochran 1985). An Organization can use these
approaches to address their economic, legal, ethical
and discretionary responsibilities (Carroll 1979,
Clarkson 1991 Wartick and Cochran 1985)
8. EMPIRICAL REVIEW
Studies have reviewed that parents, School
management and Government are crucial Publc
school stakeholders due to the role they play in the
school.
9. ROLE OF PARENTS IN SCHOOLS
Parental role in schools are widely acknowledged in
both developed and developing countries. (Brain and
Reid 2003 and Kamba 2010), Parental involvement
brings school effectiveness and improves Child
performance in general (Clase2007). Despite the
educational background and social position of parents,
parents’ involvement is essential component for
successful education and teaching at school and it is a
mistake to underestimate the willingness and capacity
of many parents to work with the school (Massey
1993). Parents’ involvement sustains educational
quality and cooperation between parents and teachers
and this enhances pupils’ performance (James 2010,
Lin 2010, Kamba 2010) Parents Teachers Association
(PTA) is very essential in the life of a school (Edward
and Redfer 1988). Roles of PTA include;- involving
parents in classroom decisions, promoting
communications, social events, fundraising and
lobbying the state and national legislatives on behalf
of the students. PTA provides opportunity for parents
and teachers to socialize and raise funds (Yahie
2000). In Kenya, PTA is responsible for management
and provision of learning and teaching materials as
well as monitoring school funds. PTA enhances the
participation of parents in leadership and management
of Public school educational affairs.
10. THE ROLE OF GOVRNMENT IN PUBLIC
SECONDARY SCHOOLS
Government plays a crucial role in financing of public
Schools’ education. In 2007 Government of Kenya
formed taskforce on affordable secondary education
to look into ways and means of reducing the cost of
secondary education on households (MOE 2008).
Eddah Gachukia recommended among others
government subsidiary of Kshs 10265 per child to
meet the cost of instructional materials and other
support services. This had to be given to each child in
every public secondary school in Kenya. This
program was launched by the then president of Kenya
His Excellence Mwai Kibaki. The government
finances education through FSE, CDF and bursaries.
11. THE ROLE OF SCHOOL MANAGEMENT
School management consist of Board of Directors
(BOG). The powers and responsibilities to govern
schools have been transferred from local authority to
individual schools and BOG and they have the
mandate to take part in leadership of schools (Field
1993, Wilson 2001, Earley 2003. These school
stakeholders, i.e the parents, Government and the
School management are concerned with formulation
and implementation of the School strategic plan and
providing the necessary resources required in
implementation of school strategic plan. The school
with adequate resources is capable of implementing
its strategic plan more effectively than the one with
insufficient resources.
Strategic planning practices in Kenyan secondary
schools were introduced by KESSP between 2006 and
2011. KESSP was a five year program of the ministry
of education in Kenya. Its aim was to improve the
provision of education in Kenya as education
governance devolves to county level under the new
constitution. The Decentralized Education
Management Activity (DEMA) provides technical
support to KESSP to strengthen the capacities of
education personnel particularly at sub-county and
school level for the efficient delivery of education
services in Kenya.
This was done by promoting decentralization of
education by supporting secondary schools to prepare
district strategic plans and secondary school strategic
plans. DEMA also assist in capacity building through
training educators in strategic planning and
performance-based management to empower schools
to collect, analyze and use data for improved decision
making, planning and management. DEMA also
coordinates with the KESI in strategic planning to
improve capacity building monitoring and
coordination.
According to DEMA report of 2011, education
managers in all sub-counties and 4000 schools across
the country had acquired capacity to plan strategically
and to base management of education on performance
and results. A total of 4522 education stakeholders

including teachers, principals, deputy principals, BOG
members and PTA members had received training in
strategic planning and performance based
management by 2011 (DEMA , 2011). School
strategic planning and implementation is the key to
success of a school with regard to achievement of its
mission, goals and objectives. Large percentage of the
public secondary schools in Kenya have already
developed strategic plans. Muriuki (2010), According
to Yabo (2010 strategic thinking and decision making
are the key to strategic management and should be
directed towards three fundamental things :- first
determining strategic direction and long term
performance of the firm, secondly providing asset of
managerial decisions and finally deciding the priority
use of resources and internal managerial decisions.
Formal strategic planning practices call for the
analysis of the key strategic factors, identifying the
major strategic issues and generating alternative
strategy. It should be noted that unless the strategic
plan is effectively implemented it cannot cause any
impact on the performance of the school Kitonga
(2012). The main challenges in implementation of
school strategic plans are:- shortage of funds,
government educational policies, poor staffing and
lack of teacher motivation. These challenges emanate
from failure of stakeholders to play their roles
effectively in strategy implementation.

Independent variables
14. THE KNOWLEDGE GAP
Though strategic management is widely practiced in
public secondary schools in Kenya there are no
documented study finding on the role of parents,
government and school management in the
implementation of school strategic plan and the extent
to which they influence implementation process. This
study was taken to fill up this knowledge gap.
15. METHODOLOGY
The study applied descriptive survey design. This was
found to be more appropriate due its ability to collect
information from respondents on attitudes and
opinions in relation to the roles of parents,
government and school management in
implementation school strategic plans
The study targeted all the 25 public secondary schools
in Mwingi Sub-county in Kenya which had
documented strategic plans as per April 2017. Census
technique was applied. 22 schools successfully
participated in the study. Principals, Board of
Governor (BOG) members and Parent Teachers
Association (PTA) members of these schools
constituted the respondents. Census technique was
used to select the 25 principals but simple random
technique was used to select 1 BOG member and 1
PTA member who was not a teacher out of their
respective population 8 and 4 respectively from each
participating school. This indicated in the table below

analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics.
16. FINDINGS
Extent of The Implementation of School Strategic Plan
The school under study had developed their strategic plan between 2010 and 2016.
95.5 % of the Principals had participated in development of their school strategic plan. The study found that all
these schools were in the process of implementing their strategic plans. Implementation of strategic plan had
started in different years as indicated in the table below.

schools 86%. It finances tuition, stationeries and
books through free secondary school education funds.
It also funds school infrastructures through
constituency development fund (CDF). It formulates
policy framework within which public secondary
schools operate (50% frequency). This is a strong
support to implementation of school strategic plan.
Role of school management in implementation of

This indicates no statistical difference between the
roles played by the parents, the government and the
school management in the implementation of school
strategic plan.
The extent in which the parents, the government
and the school management have been playing
their roles.
The study found that generally all the stakeholders
studied were not effectively playing their roles in the
implementation of school strategic plans. The average
percentage annual fee defaulted by parents was found
to be 24%. It was realized that the fee charged by all
schools studied was not enough to meet the cost of
implementation of strategic plan due to inflation and
binding government policies. 72.7 % of the principals
stated that the government was not playing its role
effectively. Disbursement of government finances to
schools is delayed. 90.9% of respondents stated that
government financing affect implementation of
strategic plans.
Factors affecting parents, government and school
management in implementation of strategic plan
The following factors were found to have affected the
stakeholders in playing their role in implementation of
strategic plan. Parents low income, School
management affected by political interference,

insufficient funding of schools, low education back-
ground and lack of time and commitment.
Government role is affected by government fiscal
year not coinciding with school calendar, inflation and
mushrooming schools and lack of finances to employ
teachers.
The parents and school management involvement
in implementation of strategic plan
The study showed that 63.6% of parents were not
involved in school strategic plan implementation,
54.54% of school management were not involved in
implementation of school strategic plan
Suggested ways of enhancing implementation of
school strategic plans
Parents and school management of public secondary
schools should be involved more in the preparation
and implantation of school strategic plans so as to
enhance ownership of the plan. Also there is need for
workshops to educate the stakeholders on the need
and importance of school strategic plan and its
implementation. There should be more timely funding
by both parents and government in school strategic
plan implementation and school stakeholders should
avoid politicizing school programs and co-operate
with school principals.
18. Discussions
Based on this study findings, the parents, the
government and the school management are critical
Stakeholders in public secondary schools in Kenya,
This is because the schools depend on them for
provision of the resources for accomplishing the
objectives outlined in their strategic plan.
Since the study did not find any statistical difference
on the role of the stakeholders in implementation of
the school strategic plans, the school management
should seek their support and value them equally. The
school principals should therefore incorporate them in
key decision making to enhance their support for
sustained school performance and survival.
Dependence theory states that the extent to which an
organization depends on its external environment and
stakeholders depend on the importance of a particular
resource to the organization, the degree to which
those who control the resources have monopoly over
the resource and the discretion they have over its
allocation (Frooman 1999, Mitchell et al 1997, Pfeffer
& Salancik 1978). Since implementation of school
strategic plans require the involvement of parents,
government and school management, the performance
of schools should be evaluated by analyzing the
effectiveness of all the stakeholders’ involvement.
19. Conclusion
The study concluded that parents, government and
school management have important roles to play in
implementation of school strategic plans.
20. Recommendation
The study recommends that there is need for more
involvement of parents in preparation of strategic
plans in public secondary schools in order to enhance
ownership for easy implementation. The government
should remit the FSE levies in time. Ministry of
education should come up with policies which would
enhance more autonomy for public schools to
implement their strategies. School management also
need more training on strategic management in order
to align their strategic plans with the internal and
external environment. This study focused of the three
groups of school stakeholders that is , the parents,
government and school management further study
need to be conducted on the role of other school
stakeholders such as teachers and students.
